Fortuna Sittard vs Twente Prediction and Betting Tips | November 23rd 2024
Fortuna Sittard will host Twente at the Fortuna Sittard Stadion on Saturday in the 13th round of the 2024-25 Dutch Eredivisie campaign. The hosts will be looking to get back to winning ways on their return from international duty and continue their early push for European playoff qualification.
Fortuna Sittard had a tough start to the league campaign, losing four of their opening six matches before picking up form and going on a five-game unbeaten run in the league. A 3-1 away loss to Zwolle in their last match ended that streak and the hosts will be hoping to begin another positive run when they host Twente this weekend.
The visitors held on for a deserved 2-2 draw against Ajax just before the international break and will be looking to pick up points in their fourth consecutive league game on Saturday. Twente currently sit in fifth place, two places and five points clear of Saturday's hosts and will hope to push further up the table to replicate their third-place finish from last season.
